Christmas Trolls- Illustrator Study

Christmas Trolls is the story of a girl named Treva. Treva loves Christmas. She wants everything about the holiday to be perfect. She spends time finding the perfect tree, the perfect decorations, and the perfect presents. Treva is busy getting ready for Christmas when she begins to realize that things are going missing. She soon see the little creatures that have been stealing from her. She follows them into a forest and finds that they are two trolls. She soon finds out that these trolls have not experience the joys that Christmas brings because they do not understand the holiday. The pictures in this story are amazing. They are so realistic that you feel as though you are in the forest experiencing exactly what Treva is. Each of the pictures also has a Christmas border outlining the page. The borders are just as intricate as the pictures themselves. Having such great illustrations makes this story even more enjoyable than what it would have been if it had been drawn by someone else.
